EMBA Machinery AB

EMBA's machinery is now being commissioned in record time

EMBA Machinery AB has been manufacturing converting machines, spare parts and upgrade kits for the global corrugated industry since 1954. Today, the company is owned by the family-owned Berg Industries, which develops and manufactures machinery and equipment for the corrugated industry, steel wire products for the pulp industry, and further processing and rental of industrial and office properties. Its customers are located all over the world, from global groups with a large number of factories and machines down to small family businesses with one or a few machines from EMBA's range.

Time-consuming with traditional rust protection

With shipments all over the world, good corrosion protection is crucial to ensure deliveries. EMBA used to use traditional methods. All units and parts had to be greased with 'smear and goo' before shipping by container or lorry. Once there, everything had to be washed off again, a time-consuming job using unhealthy solvents. Only then could assembly and installation begin.

 

Tribotec's anti-corrosion solution saved a lot of time

Today, EMBA has been working with Tribotec's environmentally friendly VCI corrosion protection for 12 years. Unlike before, each delivery now takes only 1/3 of the time to assemble and commission.

"Cortec corrosion protection is very easy to handle and ensures that the products reach our customers in the best condition"

- Jan Andréasson, Production Engineer, EMBA- Tribotec has rust-protected our machine units and spare parts during transport, both on lorry trailers during transport in Europe and in containers during sea freight worldwide. All with very good results," says Jan Andréasson, production engineer at EMBA."Other solutions against rust have been cumbersome, expensive and less good for the environment. Tribotec offers a complete rust protection programme based on the so-called VpCI technology. This is an environmentally friendly packaging method where the contents are secured by an active, invisible corrosion protection. The protected parts are ready for immediate use, saving time and improving the working environment.- We find Cortec's liquid corrosion protection from Tribotec easy to apply and the VpCI plastic very easy to handle. Together, they provide adequate protection and ensure that the products reach our customers in the best condition," concludes Jan.
